Default How do I print a data file from a mail merge doc?

Create a directory/catalog merge containing all your fields in the cells of
a single row table and merge to a new document. See also

Hello:
I would like to view all of my clients names and addresses in a list
that I can then print.
I have created a mail merge .doc or simply, labels for envelopes,
that I then proceed to print on envelopes.

I would like to see all of them in a list I can also print:
Name Address City State Zip

I cannot export it to Excel (that I am aware of).
I cannot import it from Excel (ditto).

I have multiple mail merge doc's and I do not want doubles.
I also want to be able to find my entries when they come back in the
mail informing me that the home owner has moved (nightmare).

My friend said, "If a document is already merged, you will need to
see the "data file" which you can access by opening up the merged doc
in Word, go to Tools, and merge. There you will be able to locate
the data file which will either be a table in Word or a table in
Excel."

I could not locate what he was typing about?
Please help me.

Shine on~
